Using a facile approach, we successfully made large "defect-free" hyperbranched polystyrene (PSt) chains with uniform subchains between two branching points from the interchain "clicking" of a seesaw-type linear macromon...
We report on the fabrication of a novel type of ratiometric fluorescent polymeric probes for fluoride ions (F(-)) based on self-assembled micellar nanoparticles of P(MMA-co-NBDAE)-b-PF-b-P-(MMA-co-NBDAE) coil-rod-coil tr...
Mechanical properties of polymer hydrogels are critical to their performance as tissue engineering scaffolds especially in load bearing tissues and wound sealants. In this study, we aim to synthesize mechanically tough n...
Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) was end-capped with short poly(methacryloyloxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA) chains. In aqueous solutions the end-blocks self-assembled, leading to flower-like polymeric micelles at low concentrations ...
